Alyssa Wasko of Donni. Shares Packing Strategy in Vogue's My Packing Style
Alyssa Wasko, the founder of Donni., is highlighted in Vogue's "My Packing Style" series. After her recent trip to Telluride, Colorado, she prepares her luggage the night before, favoring versatile basics such as oversized button-downs and knit pants. Wasko opts for the Kallmeyer Cottage Tote for weekend getaways and avoids checking bags. Her collection features both Donni. and vintage pieces, including Still Here's Life jeans and Eres swimwear. For colder climates, she plans to introduce Italian cashmere sweaters in November, while Christopher Esper flip-flops are her choice for warmer days. Essential items she includes are a travel wrap, a steamer, and beauty products like Solara sunscreen. Accessories consist of a black leather pouch from The Row and assorted jewelry. Wasko acknowledges her tendency to overpack, using a white T-shirt and blue oxford as "packing insurance."
